Your use case
This is one of the feature requests mentioned in element-hq/element-web#8771 which @gsouquet asked me to split into single tickets. In Element version: 1.10.13 the initial request does not fit anymore because the room creation was already changed but anyway there are some points I sill would like to suggest:
The current "Start chat" option confuses all people I introduced into Matrix/Riot because you can invite more than one person in the end of the dialogue. I know that the development of Riot/Element wanted to use structures the majority of people know from common instant messengers but it is better to explain new users one time that "everything is a room" so that it makes not much sense to distinguish between single and group chat rooms. So maybe there should be a hint like "In Matrix everything is managed in rooms. You can have a room just for yourself, for you and another person and for a group of people - flexible to adjust the amount of people any time.
According to "everything is a room" any
